This role is part of the Lunar Permanence business unit, which develops Blue Origin’s multiple Blue Moon lander product lines. To further Blue Origin's mission of having millions of people living and working in space, we are building sustainable infrastructure for our transport of crew and cargo from Earth to the lunar surface.
We are a diverse team of collaborators, doers, and problem-solvers who are relentlessly committed to a culture of safety. This position will directly impact the history of space exploration and will require your commitment and detailed attention towards safe and repeatable space flight. Join us in lowering the cost of access to space and enabling Blue Origin’s vision of millions of people living and working in space to benefit Earth.
As part of a hardworking team of spacecraft development engineers, you develop and deliver on-board autonomy algorithms, control algorithms, and flight software. You will be responsible for the derivation and development of autonomy requirements, analysis, algorithms, flight software, integration, test, verification, and validation. In this role, you will use your experience in the implementation of on-board autonomy and mechanical, thermal, fluid, and gaseous control systems.
You will work directly with NASA and our National Team Partners as part of the Human Landing System (HLS) Sustaining Lunar Development (SLD) program. You will play a key role in developing the Lunar Transportation system that will return humans to the Moon and extend human presence permanently beyond the bounds of Earth.
We are looking for someone to apply their technical expertise, leadership skills, and commitment to quality to positively impact safe human spaceflight. Passion for our mission and vision is required!
Responsibilities:
Derive and develop autonomy requirements, perform analyses and trades to validate requirements, and maintain subsystem specification, and performance metrics.
Collaborate with GN&C and other subsystems and spacecraft systems engineers to support the development of low- and high-fidelity plant models.
Build control code in Simulink to support autocoding to target
Support the development, and execution of simulations and tools required for verification of functionalities.
Use Matlab and Simulink to analyze, unit test, and verify control and autonomy algorithms.
Support verification and testing, ensuring the subsystem complies to its requirements.
Minimum Qualifications:
Minimum of a B.S. in aerospace, mechanical, or electrical engineering
Applied industry experience and/or M.S. or Ph.D. focused on development of spacecraft autonomy and controls
Experience developing embedded control systems for complex aerospace systems
Proven experience in modeling and simulation autonomy and controls operations
Familiarity with flight management, guidance, control, navigation, and astrodynamics fundamentals
Experience in Matlab, Simulink, and Stateflow
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Must be a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. permanent resident (current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum
Preferred Qualifications:
M.S. or PhD in aerospace engineering or related technical field
Experience in development and implementation of real-time embedded control solutions
Experience in full lifecycle development of GN&C and/or Autonomy on spacecraft
Experience designing, evaluating, and simulating state machines
Experience with collaboration tools such as Confluence and JIRA
Familiarity with DO-178, DO-160, and DO-254 or similar guidelines

Blue Origin was founded in 2000 by Jeff Bezos with the vision to enable a future where millions of people are living and working in space to benefit Earth. Blue believes we must protect Earth by moving heavy industries that stress our planet into space, and enable humanity to access space to expand, explore, and find new energy and material resources. Then we can see a dynamic and abundant future for our grandchildrens grandchildren. There is no plan B for Earth. To enable this future, we must build a road to space to lower the cost of getting there. Blue is working on this today by developing... operationally reusable launch vehicles that are safe, reliable and highly available. Every launch vehicle is designed for human spaceflight from the beginning and able to ferry payloads to space. Join the mission to build a road to space - step by step ferociously. #GradatimFerociter
